The Applied Bank® Unsecured Classic Visa® Card is not a metal credit card, as it is made of plastic like most other credit cards. There’s no functional difference between a plastic card like the Applied Bank Unsecured Credit Card and a metal credit card, though, so don’t dismiss the Applied Bank Unsecured Credit Card just because it isn’t metal.
